Modern methods of treatment of anal stenosis

Abstract

Objective. To develop and put into practice a new combined method of anal stenosis surgical treatment based on laser plastic surgery of tissues with a diode laser. Assess the effectiveness of the technique based on the analysis of immediate and long-term results, postoperative complications, peculiarities of technical implementation, and features of the quality of patients` life.

Materials and methods. The study involved 68 patients with anal stricture after the anal and (or) rectal surgery. All patients underwent laser correction of postoperative scar tissue. According to indications, botulinum toxin was injected into the internal sphincter and (or) PRP autoplasma perarectally. Surgery was performed under intravenous anesthesia with the addition of tumescent anesthesia or local anesthesia. Laser radiation from a diode device with a wavelength of 1.56 microns and a power of 10 W was applied.

Results. There are no restrictions on laser correction of anal stenosis regardless of the type and complexity of anal stenosis, it is technically easy to use, minimizes the risk of postoperative complications and relapse of the disease, and has a highly effective treatment result.

Conclusions. The technique is characterized by versatility and ease of use, highly effective results, high quality of patients` life, and it can be used routinely on an outpatient basis.
